• 3: Creating CellStore container
• 4: Starting CellStore
• 5: Creating CellStore service
• 6: Setup DTS cache
• 7: Additional Configuration and Optimization

Now we will proceed to starting CellStore for the first time.

Starting CellStore container

Before starting CellStore container you need to decide the port on which CellStore administration interface and REST API will be listening, denoted %CELLSTORE_PORT% in what follows.

docker run -d -v %CELLSTORE_HOME%:/root/cellstore --name cellstore \
           -p %CELLSTORE_PORT%:8080 registry.reportix.com/cellstore/cellstore:vNEXT server

For instance, if we place the %CELLSTORE_HOME% in /var/reportix/cellstore and we want to use the default the port 8080:

docker run -d -v /var/reportix/cellstore:/root/cellstore --name cellstore \
           -p 8080:8080 registry.reportix.com/cellstore/cellstore:vNEXT server

If CellStore started successfully it will start accepting connections on all interfaces on the specified port within a minute. To verify you can connect to the host machine on the chosen %CELLSTORE_PORT% using a modern browser, e.g.: http://localhost:8080.

In case you are unable to connect to CellStore you can check the logs using the command described in the Managing CellStore section.
